MedTel Outcomes has a robust staff of bilingual (English/Spanish) clinicians.
What types of information do you collect?

Can I provide any other feedback?
There may be several satisfaction questions and opportunities to provide feedback during the assessment. If you had a problem or concern, you can also give us that information.
How can I verify this call is legitimate?
At the time of your assessment, you may ask for the Patient Referral Contact and the clinician conducting your interview can provide you the phone number of the hospital contact who can verify the purpose of our call.
